Conditional formatting will work if you select the whole row and use a
formula like

=$A1="Reject"

Hello All,

I am using Office 2000 and have the following problem

A B C D .... .... ....
Fit Sam William etc ....
Reject Harry Jones etc ....
Active Bob Howe etc. ...

...
....
Fit ... ... .... .....
Fit
Active
Active
Reject
etc

I wish to put a commandbutton on the worksheet when clicked all Rows
depending upon the text in Column A (eg Fit should be green color, Reject
should be Red color, and Active should be Yellow color )

I tried conditional formatting but it just changes the cell and not the
entire row.. I wish to change the color of the entire row.
Can somebody please help me out

TIA

Rashid
